Enhancing Maritime Operations With AI-Driven Wave Prediction

45

Miros has introduced a new technology called PredictifAI, which provides real-time predictions of ocean waves and vessel motion. This advanced tool can help improve maritime safety and operational efficiency, according to Miros.

Dual Source Management 

Miros applies this new and unique dual-source measurement concept using its WaveSystem technology, which tightly integrates measurement sources to reliably operate in both simple and complex sea states.

PredictifAI reduces the unknowns from statistical wave estimates and forecasts to achieve the level of accuracy and reliability needed for the safe management of critical operations, avoiding quick and uninformed decisions.

Digital Twin

Crucially, the solution doesn’t require calibration, modeling, or any other twin representation of the vessel – it creates its digital twin automatically.  That means vessel owners and operators, in need of short-term, highly accurate wave and motion prediction to safeguard their critical operations, can benefit immediately.

Marius Five Aarset, Miros CEO, said: “For 40 years, Miros has been a pioneer in high-quality ocean technology, relentlessly pushing boundaries to enhance the efficiency and safety of offshore operations without compromising quality. With PredictifAI it is no different and this is the next step in this development.

PredictifAI is a further demonstration of our commitment to staying ahead of the wave, inspiring confidence that will shape the sector’s future. The result of the hard work of our in-house team of industry experts, this next-generation technology represents a significant leap forward in maritime safety and operational efficiency.”

Optimizing Operational Efficiency

Collaboration has been crucial to the development of PredictifAI, with Miros’ key offshore customers being early adopters of the technology ahead of a wider rollout.

The ability to predict waves accurately and reliably in advance unlocks a wide range of benefits for the offshore sector, optimizing operational efficiency in activities such as wind turbine installation, jacking operations, cable and pipelay campaigns, diving support operations, and ROV launch.

Forecasting incoming single waves, wave trains, vessel motion patterns, and timing of these provide valuable insights for a wide range of on-deck and overside operations, and ensures better decision-making and risk management, as well as mitigating the risk of accidents in scenarios such as connecting a gangway.
